The kids were so excited about going to watch Cars 2. We went to Target that morning and bought matching shirts. Josiah insisted that Mackenzie have one too. We went by and picked up Aunt Gabby, Uncle Jrob, and Uncle Josh. My Tia Chela watched Mackenzie so that we could take the kids. It was a wonderful night. They were too cute with their trays of popcorn and sprite. Josiah laughed out loud a lot! Sissy was bored after about thirty minutes but switched from Aunt Gabby and my lap during the movie. We are looking forward to many more "movie nights" with the kids...well maybe not too much...might break the bank ha!

After not being able to find a sitter for Mackenzie I decided to stay behind while the rest of the gang went to the Braves game. But after realizing that I missed Sissy's first Hawks game and I was about to miss her first Braves game I decided we would ALL go! It was the fastest I've gotten us all ready to hit the road! Snacks, drinks, plenty of diapers, change of clothes, miscellaneous baby/kid stuff, and pajamas were packed and we were off to a night in Atlanta to watch the Braves. I am so glad I decided to go because it was one of the best nights that we have had as a family. We left early and arrived at the ballpark in time to walk around and eat dinner at the Chop House. The kids had a blast and were so well behaved. I don't think I stressed at all the entire night. My sweet Mackenzie continues to surprise me. She is SO easy...I know you hate me, but hey...she's our third, I deserve it ;) ha!

Where are we going Sissy?

Thank goodness for our new jogging stroller!

Almost 12 years of dating and 7 years of marriage and I am still crazy in love with my sweet man!

Someone was excited about her first Braves game!

What a great evening!

And of course perfect ending to a perfect evening...The Braves defeated the Colorado Rockies 5 to 3!

After observing daddy for a few weeks, Josiah decided he wanted to run like daddy. He set out his "running clothes, headband, wristbands, socks and shoes the night before. He begged daddy the following morning and Joseph of course could not say no! It's so sweet to watch Josiah do what daddy does. The other day as Joseph was stretching I watched Josiah observing him so closely. After daddy left for his run, Josiah was stretching like his daddy. What a constant reminder to always be on guard...not only is God watching us, but our kids are watching us also :).
